It's hard to pin down a favorite. I first think of Romeo and Juliet or Marc Antony and Cleopatra (kind of fictional).
Then I remember Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan in Sleepless in Seattle, or Keanu Reeves and Sandra Bullock in The Lake House.
It's the same tale, respun. I'm on a bit of a Keanu kick at the moment.

I'll let you know when something happens. I waver between dancing around my desk at work when someone 'likes' a post on my blog or follows me on Twitter to writing in the middle of the night, trying to NOT feel everything too much.

I've always been a writer in one way or another. It's what I do in my day job. In the summer of 2015, I was bored at work (shh! don't tell my boss) and was looking around for something to read while I was waiting for the Aviva Women's Tour ticker to update. I stumbled upon a fanfiction site and the hamster wheel in my brain started to turn. I started to flesh out the characters and hooked onto the idea of writing about a pro cyclist.
